Eleven board members, the administrative assistant, and one visitor were present at the November 24 board meeting. The treasurer’s report that was approved is attached and minutes that were approved from the last meeting will be posted on the website. Expenses are below budget and income is over budget.

There was not a lot of committee news. Jim Seubert encouraged everyone to attend the holiday social. Live music by local professional performers Lanny Langston and Julie Patton will be a special highlight this year. Commons Chair Nick Head reported there will be some additional work, hopefully before the end of the year.
In the absence of other volunteers the executive committee will serve as the nominating committee again this year. Five board member’s terms will be expiring. They are Larry Ahrens, Mark Hicks, Andy Leek, Craig Louer and Roy Wehling. Anyone interested in serving on the board can reply to this e-mail or notify Alan Ortbals.
The meeting went into closed session at 7:35 for discussion of 2015 personnel needs and possible property acquisition.

NEXT MEETING – Monday,  Jan 19 (MLK Day) – committees need to turn in budget requests now so the 2015 budget draft that goes out to the membership can be reviewed at the next meeting. Important note:  There is no meeting in December and the January meeting is being held on the third Monday, not the last Monday of the month.
